Nice post. I was wondering how big a filter would fit in the engine bay. Hey, didn't you have the Nano? If so, why did you decide to switch to Cobb?

Yeah, What happened to the Nano SRI?

I always wanted a Cobb SRI. So I decided to get one after they re-released them.

I think it sounds different, looks better, and fits better than the Nano. But that’s just my personal opinion.

But that’s just my personal opinion.Sure, while I like the look of the CP-e better, I like the fact that the Cobb has the mounting flange for an airbox built in. Maybe I'll switch to Cobb if they ever make an airbox. More importantly, did you get any trims for the Nano on the Dashhawk and how do they compare with the Cobb?

It doesn't look like the Cobb cold air box would fit with the Amsoil filter.

I like the Cobb setup, but I don't like the fact everyone is breaking their intake mounting brackets and how Cobb isn't doing anything about it.
